    Mathew had seven pages of his book left to read.  There were 100 pages in total.  What percentage of pages did he have left?

    • A.

      70%

    E. 7%
    Explanation
    Mathew had seven pages left to read out of a total of 100 pages. To find the percentage of pages he had left, we divide the number of pages left (7) by the total number of pages (100) and multiply by 100. This gives us (7/100) * 100 = 7%. Therefore, Mathew had 7% of the pages left to read.

      Multiply the numerator by the denominator.

    • B.

      Divide the numerator by the denominator.

    • C.

    • D.

      Subtract the numerator from the denominator.

    Correct Answer
    B. Divide the numerator by the denominator.
    Explanation
    To convert a fraction to a decimal, you divide the numerator (the top number of the fraction) by the denominator (the bottom number of the fraction). This process is based on the concept that a fraction represents a part of a whole, and by dividing the numerator by the denominator, you determine how many times the fraction represents the whole. The result of this division is expressed as a decimal. For example, if you have the fraction 3/4, when you divide 3 by 4, you get 0.75, which is the decimal equivalent of the fraction.
